What's the longest you've gone without sleep and why?
 
4 days when I was playing Guild Wars. I was 18 and pretty obsessive compulsive with games.
 
About 2 days. The doctor gave me some new medication for my seasonal allergies. I normally go to bed about 10 pm, but when that time passed and I wasn't tired and the sun started coming up in the morning and I was still up. I started wondering about the new med. I looked it up online and sure enough, a side affect was insomnia. Unfortunately I didn't realize it before I took the second pill. Needless to say.... I am not on that medication anymore.
 
During my hard-working stunts, the longest hours that I did not sleep were 24 hours. I was on a deadline at that time.
